THE HORSEPOWER.


How Il Came to BE Applied ~ . Measure
Of IN Engines Work.
The use of the horsepower as a
measure of an engines work came
naturally from the fact that the first
engines were built to do work which
had formerly been performed by horses.
John Smeaton. who built atmospheric
engines before Bolton and Watt placed
their more complete machine upon the
market, had valued the work done by a
strong horse as equal to lifting a weight
of $4,000 pounds one foot high in a
minute. When Bolton and Watt began
to bid for public favor, they agreed to
place their engines for 1.-THE value of
one-third part of the Goals which are
saved in its use." They also increased
the value of the horsepower to $1,000
foot pounds, so that their engines were
half again as powerful for their rated
power as those of their competitors.
The following are the various values
OF horsepower: $4,000 foot pounds
per minute, $50 foot pounds per second.
1865 thermal units per hour, 42.75 Their
NAL units per minute.
The horsepower of boiler depends
upon its capacity for evaporation. The
evaporation of 80 pounds of water
from 100 degrees Fahrenheit into steam
at 70 pounds gauge pressure equals
34a pounds from and at PIP degrees
Fahrenheit is equivalent to a horse
power.
The amount of water which boiler
will evaporate at an economical rate in
an hour. divided by the above quanti-
ties, is its commercial horsepower.
A unit of evaporation is the heat re-
quired to evaporate a pound of water
from and at 2l2 degrees=966. l thermal
units.
A thermal unit is the amount of heat
required to raise pound of water one
Fahrenheit degree in temperature at
its point of maximum density.
One thermal unit is equivalent to 772
foot pounds. The horsepower of en-
gines varies directly as the product of
the piston area, piston speed and mean
effective pressure. Hence, with the
same mean effective pressure, the
power of engines varies directly as
their piston speed and as the square of
their diameter.-GOlden Days.

How to Reduce Your Expenses.

You can do it easily, and you will not have
to deprive yourself Of a single comfort; on
the contrary, you will enjoy life more than
ever. How can you accomplish this result!
Easily; cut down your doctors bills. When
you lose your appetite, and become bilious
and constipated, and therefore low-spirited,
don't rush of to the family physician for q
prescription, or, on the other hand, wait
until you are sick abed before doing any
thing at all; but just go to the druggists
and for twenty-five cents get supply Of DR..
Pierce's Pleasant Purgative Pellets. Take
them as directed, and our word for it, your
unpleasant symptoms will disappear as il by
magic, you will have no big DOCTORS bill to
pay, and everybody interested Except the
doctor) will feel happy.

CONSUMPTION, Wasting Diseases, and
General Debility. Doctors disagree as to
the relative value of Cod Liver Oil and
Hypophosphites: the one supplying strength
and flesh, the other giving nerve power, and
acting as tonic to the digestive and entire
system. But in Scott's Emulsion of Cod
Liver Oil with HypOphosphites the two are
combined, and the effect is wonderful.
Thousands who have derived no permanent
benefit from other preparations have been
cured by this. SCOTS Emulsion is perfect
~ palatable and is easily digested by those
who can not tolerate plain Cod Liver Oil.

INTERESTING FIGURES.
The Entire Motive Force of the Civilize
Countries of the World.

The Entire Motive Force of the Civilized
Countries of the World.
From note published by the Bureau
of Statistics in Berlin the following
very interesting figures are taken.
Four-fifths of the engines now work
ing in the world have been constructed
during the last five lustra (25 years..
France has actually 1880 stationary
or locomotive boilers, 1000 locomo-
tives, and 1850 boats boilers; Germany
has $4,000 boilers, 10000 locomotives,
and LOO ships boilers; Austria, $4,000
boilers and $500 locomotives.
The force equivalent to the working
steam engines represents in the United
States 100000 horse power, in Eng
land 100000 horse power, in Germany
4, 100000, in France 100000, in Aus
tria ], 100000. In these the motive pow
er of the locomotives is not included,
whose numberi in all the world amounts
to 100000. and represent a total of
100000 horse power. Adding this
amount to the other figures. we obtain
the total of 46, 900, 900 horse power,
A steam horse power is equal to
three actual horses power; living
horse is equal to seven men. The
steam engines to-day represent in the
world approximately the work of a
thousand million of men, or more than
double the working population of the
earth, whose total population amounts
to 1,455, 1928, 900 inhabitants. Steam,
therefore, has trebled mans working
power, enabling him to economic his
physical strength while attending to
his intellectual development.-Scien-
